Comparing dealing with a mother-in-law like quarters in a football game is pretty accurate. But she paid off the refs, and your wife deflated the balls.
First caller - You cannot "make" someone like you. Just be yourself and if she doesn't like you, that's her loss. Your husband probably does not want you changing either.
I have to give it to Wisconsinites (forgive me if I misspelled that) for their upfront and blunt honesty and transparency.. . “We don’t go to therapy” instead we distract ourselves and shove our feelings “under the rug” so to speak. Tbh not much different than how I grew up and I’m in the west
I was watching live. But I married my 8th grade sweet heart from 2006 on; and forever. So not everything from middle/highschool is forgettable. Pre-pubescence isn't like vegas, some things do stick.
I haven’t lived up in the far north since the mid 80’s, and I was west by two states from these guys, but I’m almost old enough to be their mom. I understand all of it for some reason.
This is such a great episode. And extra long for us this time. I laughed out loud walking my dog so many times the neighbors musta thought I was high. I love the ideas. Passive aggressive bingo and leave it on the fridge is prefect. Along with giving her a taste of her own medicine mixed in with a little WWCD. And the chimney guy was great chill fun and likely has all kinda stories he could belly up and share. And that middle school kid really was hilarious. He's riddled with just enough snark to balance the smarts and I'd download tik tok to watch him play his six foot triangle top a song about being the tetris king.
I’m 68. My wife and I are married 43 years this week. Our parents didn’t want us to get married because we were different religions. So we eloped. Both mother-in-laws said very hurtful things to both of us. We still treated them with respect and eventually, they learned to love both of us. The first caller should be the bigger person, and visit with her family more. It’s a big deal to religious families when their children marry out of the religion. Charlie shouldn’t make fun of the Mormon religion. It’s still a free country.
Late 60’s is NOT “pretty old”. It is very common for people to live to be in their 90s today if they’re healthy and it sounds like the kind of activity she likes to do which means she may very well live to be in her 90s.
That one lady could go with a passive aggressive comment about crochet. For example, “oh yeah I remember making that pattern when I started out too!” Sounds nice but ain’t 😊 plausible deniability
To the woman with the passive aggressive mother in law. Read something about Narcissistic abuse. Or watch some videos on you tube. It sounds like you are the single target. And the rest of your family haven't got a clue. You clearly sound like a very sweet person. Who after 18 years, do not bear a grudge... And still tries to fix this.. You need to let go,. And stop giving this any attention what so ever!
"Bud and mary Jane and I go way back" I was dead
I look forward to this every week
This podcast makes my whole week better each time you guys drop new content! Keep em coming and watch out for deer!
I ran a race and came in first in my age category - later I found out I was the only one in my age group! I still have the medal...☺
Love you guys. It's gonna seem weird, but talking about typical Midwest "stuff" is comforting to me, and you guys always make me laugh ❤❤
To the first caller.... ignore the mormom mother-in-law. She ain't gonna change, and you will never make her happy.... unless you join their church.
I write "I feel so dirty" when I see a dirty car. giggle
You guys have some great ideas. I have a problem with my daughter-in-law. Gonna try summa these
I thought that was a red ketchup bottle to the left of Charlie for the entire episode, then he started drinking out of it 😂. Ope!
Ice scraper, sand, blanket, lighter, flashlight, jerky🎉
First caller, learn to crochet a shawl. Super easy. Send it to mother-in-law. Big stitches! Lol
This is the best way to end the work week

Absolutely love this podcast

We need a round table podcast with you guys and Patrick and Ethan (who likes goth girls)!
Charlie, i didn't know you liked ketchup that much!😊

Sup from Yuma AZ, the world's sunniest city
Another awesome episode
A midwest starter pack should always include an old pair of grass stained tennis shoes.

This level of English is harder than what I know 🤓 I have to pause and translate a word every 20 seconds 🥲

No doubt the dispensary guy failed.😂

Wooooohoooo
Wait... Miles is from Fargo?! I think I've met that guy at the bar!
PS - Myles have you run a marathon - I say 1/2 marathon is a great achievement !!!!!
He was being sarcastic. Most of their advice is tongue in cheek.

Hello 👋 yinz beautiful people of the world
Zynfidels
Oh, no...please don't call it an Old Folks Home - maybe that's a midwestern thing...Retirement home sounds so much better or Senior Living...
P.s. Charles is still hot 😅
Like #69
Charlie, is that the Biden sniff test? Ugh
